Based on what we know now, release window, control method, general specs, assumed price and rumored titles, will you be picking up a Revolution?

Xbox 360, simply because it will launch earlier and promises me the distant treat of Halo 3.

I'm definitly getting a Revolution on launch but I'm unsure wether I should get an Xbox360 or a PS3.

I've always owned a playstation and I've always enjoyed them plus I want to continue play ing games such as Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy and the like but even though its not confirmed that under the assumption that the price is going to be sky high, the size, Sony's/Ken's ego and the damage that it is doing to our industry I don't know if I should pick one up but then I want one, just for those exclusive games but then I don't want to pay too much for most of the things I won't be using on the PS3.

Xbox 360: I dunno, I never really liked the idea of Microsoft entering the console race but now, I see that they are a better company that Sony but still, its the lack of japanese support that worries me as I'm not a massive fan of racing, shooters etc. Most if not all my games that I own are from Japanese developers which probably sounds stupid but I don't go about buying only Japanese developed games, I dunno, I just seem to prefer them more. But now, with games like Perfect Dark, Kameo (which seem fairly decent) and with the promise of greater japanese support I'm again unsure wether to get a Xbox360.

In fact, I don't really need to buy either console on its release date, I might as well wait a few years before I even think about it. The Rev comes first due to SSBR, Zelda, Mario, Metriod etc

Sorry to go on lol, never realised and it seems to be a waste if I just delete half my post. :P

I´m used to wait so I have patience. No doubt I´ll get a Revolution on launch day.

i'll want to get a Revolution but if they make a Kingdom Hearts 3 then Nintendo will have to wait.

I'll be buying Revolution when the next-gen Zelda comes out. Or after the first price-drop.

I need a freash dose of Nintendo goodness and I'm sure the Rev will give it me! Release day purchase for me!

Although I'll be gettin an Xbox 360 too (maybe a PS3 some time later if my bro doesn't, but he most likely will :D )

I will not be getting a PS3, the only reason why i liked Sony was because they had Square-Enix, but now they are multiformat so i am not interested in Sony anymore, XBOX 360, well i think my brother will get it, so i won't bother wasting my money on it. So the revolution shall be my only console i will get and i will get on the release date.

Definitely getting it, but will probably get the Xbox 360 first. I don't think I can wait another year before getting a new console!

There should be a 'depends if the gimmick actually works well' option

Wesley
19-10-2005, 03:25 PM
I don't have a clue what games are on it.

Most likely not though, seeing as I hardly play videogames.

I don't care about the release date. I never had a console that is not labeled "Nintendo" and i am not planning to buy one in the future. I'll stick to my PC and i'll spent the wait time on WoW and other internet games:).

PS Maybe, and after much much thought, maybe i try XBOX 360 too.

I'll probably get it on launch too, if there are a couple of games i really want. Would be the first time I've got a console on the launch date.

At first I wonted to get the XBox 360 first. But when I saw the Revo controller....



Nahh :wink:

Why isnt there a "I don't know" option.

BeerMonkey

ill get on launch if there is some good launch titles

zaraki Why isnt there a "I don't know" option

Because, you MUST know!! There can be no indecision!!
No seriously, your right, that option should be there, forgot to include it and im not sure if i can go back and add it or not.

I'll definitely buy the Revo on release day almost no matter the cost (I'm already saving something for the Revo)

I even play with the thought of importing one from Japan if it's about as easy as with the DS (German or English Menu and Pal support)

I'm definately gettin the rev, but i'm gettin the 360 this christmas. Also i'll be gettin the ps3 next year. So basically all three consoles.

Andrew
19-10-2005, 09:29 PM
I have no intention of buying anything other than the Rev, although I might sit tight for a few months after its release because I never like taking chances with new consoles. For example, I waited a year before buying my Xbox because I wanted to see if it flopped or not, and the GC hadn't lived up to my expectations. Also the controller will be a big decision point for me - it looks cool but I want to see it in use!

I NEED it. If I don't have it in 2007, I'll suffer a very painfull death....

I'll be getting the REV on launch day, as I have done for all the Nintendo consoles and handhelds I own. I'm sure the controller will be great and the way nintendo are talking about their launch line-up, I wouldn't be surprised to see 2-3 "must haves" right away!

I won't be buying either the PS3 or 360 as they seem to be more of the same and more about tech specs than actual gaming!

After the disappointment that was Gamecube I don't think I'll be getting Ninty's next machine at all, at least not at launch.
Ninty's got a lot to prove next generation and I'm not really convinced they can pull it off. I'll be getting a 360 for sure when it comes out and maybe, just maybe, in the distant future a Revo.

Topics such as this seem a little premature to me.

No doubt I'll buy a Revolution at some point, however when I buy it depends on a number of factors such as price-tag, games etc.

does a bear shit in the woods .......of cours he does im buyin one and if thers none left well i will get it hahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
and as i have said before princes twilight will see of any compertision for me till it comes out unless thay do the unspeakable to me again

So far it seems I'll buy the Rev at launch. I'll have to see the games first, because the Xbox 360 looks pretty good as well, it just needs a price drop. I will get a Revolution anyway, but maybe not at launch.

MunKy
20-10-2005, 02:20 PM
Launch day. I'm gonna preorder as soon as possible. As for 360, no definantly not. I got xbox only for Fable cuz Peter Molyneux made it, and it was good, but a better version has come out on PC. Damn. I own no other games for it. PS3, dont make me laugh. If I wanted a flood of mediocre games I would have got PS1 and 2. Rev only cuz I'm bored with games right now and I need something new. Else I'm leaving gaming.

I instantly but the Revolution on launch and Nintendo better honor my enthusiasm. I can't sell another kidney.

Will get the rev but will more than likely be getting the PS3 before it... that or possibly the Xbox360 but it's undecided which one of those two I'll get.

Get in there Pit-JR, but you have to admit most people would say no to all of them.

i wasnt going to buy one at first. but now, with all the talk about even more revolutionary features im definitely going to. its gonna be sweet

Kurtle Squad

I might get a 360 if several good games come out for it, but I definatly wont yet. I need the money to fuel the Gamecube with games, and I MIGHT need the money if the Rev comes out before summer *fingers crossed*

Maxi678
27-10-2005, 12:19 PM
Dunno, i'm still deciding which next gen console(s) to buy. I might buy a Revo if i think that it is worth buying (retro gaming downloads, is worth a look at). The main bit that is concerning me is the controller. If the Revo isn't worth getting, then i'll probably get a X-Box 360 or a PS3

Maverick
31-10-2005, 08:04 PM
This is a nintendo board so the answer is already known, but anyway my answer is yes but as the first answer was so extreme i chose the second although im getting a ps3 after a revolution.

Revo cant wait for me, i need it now! Ask any of my friends, I like to try new and innovative things, and i love the look of this system

RoadKill

I'm going to get an Xbox 360 first, and I very much doubt any of you have kids to sell, so you should all be fucking ashamed if you chose that option.

I'll get a revolution if it's decent and I have the funds, but Xbox 360 primarily. Definitely.

Dr Kong
01-11-2005, 09:14 AM
Provided there are decent games on the system that I can enjoy, yes I will be getting one.

kellett03
18-11-2005, 07:27 AM
not straight away, maybe 6 months after realise unless it is unbelieveably awesome. the reason for this, cube games will hit the barbin bins and that when i start cashing in on lost gems i did not buy when they first came out. i will still get my hands on a revo in the first week of lunch to see how it is.
